Solution

  1. Pull strings: This idiom means to use your influence or connections to get what you want. It's often used in situations where someone has an unfair advantage because they know someone in a position of power.

  2. Pull in one's horns: This idiom means to become less ambitious or aggressive, often after experiencing failure or disappointment. It's often used in business or competitive situations.

  3. Pull out all the stops: This idiom means to do everything you can to make something successful. It comes from the world of organ playing, where 'pulling out all the stops' would make the music as loud and grand as possible.

  4. Pull one's weight: This idiom means to do your fair share of work. It's often used in team situations where everyone is expected to contribute equally.

Translating Algebraic Phrases

Make Bob WinAlice and Bob are playing a game. They have with them a binary string 𝑆S.Alice and Bob alternate making moves, with Alice going first.On their turn, a player does the following:Choose a non-empty contiguous substring of 𝑆S all of whose characters are the same, delete it from 𝑆S, and concatenate the remaining parts.More formally, choose integers 𝐿L and 𝑅R such that 1≤𝐿≤𝑅≤∣𝑆∣1≤L≤R≤∣S∣ and 𝑆𝐿=𝑆𝐿+1=…=𝑆𝑅S L​ =S L+1​ =…=S R​ , and replace 𝑆S with the string 𝑆1𝑆2…𝑆𝐿−1𝑆𝑅+1𝑆𝑅+2…𝑆∣𝑆∣S 1​ S 2​ …S L−1​ S R+1​ S R+2​ …S ∣S∣​ .This reduces the length of 𝑆S by 𝑅−𝐿+1R−L+1.Alice wins immediately when 𝑆S doesn't contain any occurrence of 11, while Bob wins immediately when 𝑆S doesn't contain any occurrence of 00. Both players will play to win.Note that if the string initially doesn't contain any occurrences of 00, Bob wins before any moves are made.Bob wants to win the game, so before the game starts, he can flip some characters of 𝑆S.That is, Bob can choose an index 𝑖i (1≤𝑖≤𝑁1≤i≤N), and set 𝑆𝑖S i​ to 00 if it was originally 11, and vice versa.Find the minimum number of flips Bob needs to make to ensure he can win.Input FormatThe first line of input will contain a single integer 𝑇T, denoting the number of test cases.Each test case consists of two lines of input.The first line of each test case contains one integer 𝑁N — the length of 𝑆S.The second line contains the binary string 𝑆S.Output FormatFor each test case, output on a new line the minimum number of flips required in 𝑆S to make Bob win.Constraints1≤𝑇≤1051≤T≤10 5 1≤𝑁≤2⋅1051≤N≤2⋅10 5 𝑆S is a binary string, i.e, contains only the characters 00 and 11.The sum of 𝑁N over all test cases won't exceed 2⋅1052⋅10 5 .Sample 1:InputOutput31031116011001101Explanation:Test case 11: Bob changes the only character of 𝑆S, resulting in 𝑆=1S=1.There are no 00's in this string, so Bob wins automatically.Test case 22: There are no 00's in the string, so Bob wins without having to change anything.Test case 33: Bob can flip the first character of the string, turning it into 111001111001.It can be shown that if the game is played on this string, Bob will win; whereas he would lose if the game is played on the initial string.
